<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->It is like water is formless at certain range of temperature while it is ice at another rnage. Can you claim that water is superior to ice or ice is superior to water<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

I guess the kevala advaita claim is that ICE (iswara) is unreal and only water(Brahman) is real. Temperature(Maya) shows the Water (BRAHMAN) as ICE (Iswara).

Gangajalji,
I am getting what you have been saying all along. I will put it the other way. Since everything is Brahman, even the unreal (maya) is Brahman as nothing exists independent of Brahman. Brahman sans the real and unreal (Rasa atheetham). Brahman transends the reality-unreality paradigm.

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--> would say that the boy, the girl and the teacher are all right from different points of view. <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Brahman transcends right or wrong as right are wrong are relative terms within the mayic standpoint.
